C.U.C's Prospects.

The C.U.C. team is (so C.U.C. says) hardly up to the from of previous years, but has been well coached and hopes to give a good account of itself.

Hall, in goal, is an N.Z.U. Blue and should retain his place. As full-backs, Shillito, on the right is very solid, while Metson, on the left, newly promoted, is very promising.

Of the halves, Walter and Cooper at centre and right respectively, hold N.Z.U. Blues; the former was in teh Fiji touring team. Both are playing well up to standard. The other half, Hurst, recetly promoted, is a capable man.

The wingers, Prebble and Mogan, both new, show distinct propmise. Huston at right inside and Barnett, centere, well-known experienced Tournament players, are going very well. Duffield, left inside, should have no difficulty in retaining his place in a N.Z.U. team.

The team is captained by Ford, a veteran, who is playing as well as ever.
